Abstract

In this paper, we study a dynamic fluid-structure interaction (FSI) problem involving a rotational elastic turbine, which is modeled by the incompressible fluid model in the fluid domain with the arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian (ALE) description and by the St. Venant-Kirchhoff structure model in the structure domain with the Lagrangian description, and the application to a hemodynamic FSI problem involving an artificial heart pump with a rotating rotor. A linearized rotational and deformable structure model is developed for the rotating rotor and a monolithic mixed ALE finite element method is developed for the hemodynamic FSI system. Numerical simulations are carried out for a hemodynamic FSI model with an artificial heart pump, and are validated by comparing with a commercial CFD package for a simplified artificial heart pump.
